Tiny Ninjas! Run for cover...

This tuesday I was downtown DC for the Public Hearing for FDA Med Guides. After this I decided to head to Foggy Bottom to catch one of the free shows at the Kennedy Center. One thing you need to know about DC is that nearly everything is free, paid for by our tax dollars so I am taking full advantage of it. and for being free, everything so far has been really done well... the holocaust museum - amazing.
Anyways, the free shows start at 6 pm every night, 365 days a year. On this particular evening, it was NYC's Tiny Ninja Theater presenting Macbeth. Very funny, but slightly confusing b/c you can only have so many different colored ninjas - the whole thing was played by these tiny Ninja action figurines which were voiced over. It was definitely worth the price... but had I had to pay money, well, I might just pay for it to say to I saw Macbeth acted by tiny ninjas. though i would prefer it being acted out by lifesize ninjas, preferably with numchucks and throwing stars. (also b/n 5-6 is the Kennedy Center happy hour, so i got a beer for half price)


While there, I explored the Kennedy Center, hoping to see how they worked for the 4th of July for the fireworks. I hear its one of the best places to see the fireworks. I also went and saw the Watergate Hotel which was right next door. I'm posting pics of the Watergate Hotel, Kennedy Center, and the view from the center's terrace. (posted in that order)
